As a matter of fact, that type of undertaking is perhaps the one that applies all human knowledge from different fields and that has been developed by humankind throughout its existence. In addition, the art of war also exercises all types of human capacities while making use of disciplines ranging from physics, chemistry and mathematics to psychology, social sciences, and logistics. Therefore, we can say that there is no \"enterprise\" larger than an organization that conducts a complex \"undertaking\" like war (Armed Forces). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWe know that many companies have attempted to ensure that the political vision and strategies defined by high management are translated by the executors into real and tangible actions. Much of what was thought and carefully planned gets lost on the way because of the lack of a methodological tool that would link the \u003ci\u003epolitical\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003estrategic\u003c\/i\u003e levels (levels of vision for the company's direction) to the \u003ci\u003etactical\u003c\/i\u003e level (execution level, production or \"shop floor\" level). This linkage should be done at the so called \u003ci\u003eoperational\u003c\/i\u003e level, and the missing tool provided by the methodology of strategy operationalization, known as \u003ci\u003eoperational art\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eOperational art is the cognitive and creative\/emotional skill to develop a conceptual planning that should translate strategies into executable activities. In short, operational art is about implementing the strategies, that is, developing actions to put strategies into practice. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe conceptual planning, which is developed by means of operational art, is what should guide the different departments of the company to build their tactical action plans (detailed execution planning) to ensure the execution is entirely aligned with the company's strategies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rodrigo Pereira Vergara\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798337592992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/17\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 74\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.15d","brand":"Rodrigo Pereira Vergara","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48851322306815,"sku":"9798337592992","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/operational-art-rodrigo-pereira-vergara-9798337592992","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
